Privacy Policy & Data Processing Addendum (DPA)
About Your Data
Your privacy is very important to us. In order to better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage of our website and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested.
Protecting Your Personally Identifiable Information
Personally identifiable information (PII) is any data that can be used to identify a specific individual. Social Security numbers, mailing or email address, and phone numbers have most commonly been considered PII, but technology has expanded the scope of PII considerably. It can include an IP address, login IDs, social media posts, or digital images. Geolocation, biometric, and behavioral data can also be classified as PII.

Data Protection Contacts
Data Processor
Data processors may be the internal groups that maintain and process personal data records or any outsourcing firm that performs all or part of those activities.
The GDPR holds processors liable for breaches or non-compliance. It’s possible, then, that both your company and processing partner such as a cloud provider will be liable for penalties even if the fault is entirely on the processing partner.
Sweet Brier Media
As the primary website management service for this website Sweet Brier Media will have access to view and manage client PII data.
